Your article on comfy cars what tyres would you suggest

My present tyres are 205/55/r16 91v Pirelli p7, but they seem noisy. Could you suggest a tyre with better ride quality and less noise, ideally budget or midrange prices?

Switch to 15" wheels and 195/65 R15 tyres, preferably Michelin Energy Saver.
